The Wall Street Transcript Publishes Outlook for eFinance Report In Robertson Stephens Tech 2000 Issue NEW YORK, March 3 -- Twenty-one leading analysts and top management of thirty-three Technology firms examine the Business Services sector in the latest issue of The Wall Street Transcript (212/952-7433) or twst.com . In a crucial review of this sector for investors and industry professionals, this valuable 174-page Special Issue features: Outlook for eFinance Report - In an in-depth Analyst Interview Scott Appleby, a Principal and Senior eFinance Analyst with Robertson Stephens, examines eFinance's major players performance & future, the role of the traditional financial service companies on line and shares his stock recommendations. Appleby comments, ``eFinance includes companies that are leveraging the Internet platform, providing not only information, but allowing consumers and businesses to make a financial transaction electronically.' In the increasingly fragmented market, Appleby declares, ``there are two sets of customers, two sets of players here, one of which is the front-end branded sites like InsWeb (Nasdaq: INSW - news). They have approximately 100 carriers on their Web site. So you can choose from that many product manufacturers (carriers) at the InsWeb Web site. We expect them to syndicate this aggregation technology and content to other super financial portals, so you'll be able to get insurance through InsWeb at ETRADE (Nasdaq: EGRP - news).' Appleby recommends, ``On the super-financial portal and technology enabler theme, we like ETRADE, Intuit, and S1 (Nasdaq: SONE - news). For vertical expertise, we like Ameritrade. We like InsWeb. For the B2B market exchange, the largest market in the world, we like Knight/Trimark (Nasdaq: NITE - news). We think all of these stocks -- some have moved up more than others, but particularly E*TRADE, Knight, Insweb, and Ameritrade -- are really on their lows and have a lot of room to run.'
